Sacha Kurochka
Fantastic service. Very knowledgeable and friendly. It’s in my honest opinion, prices are very reasonable and affordable. Had a tune-up done on my Mercedes, oil change plugs tire rotation and it was a fraction of the cost from the dealer. I strongly recommend.

You can tell they have real experience: no mistakes, no wasted time, just solid work. Prices are fair and the service is straightforward — not like those places that try to squeeze extra money out of you. If you need something done quickly and properly, definitely worth coming here.

Diagnostics FAQ
Your check engine light can come on for many reasons, from a loose gas cap to engine, emissions, or sensor problems. Our computerized diagnostic equipment reads your vehicle’s fault codes and performs additional testing to accurately identify the cause before any repairs are recommended.
Most vehicle diagnostic services can be completed in about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the issue. If additional testing is needed to pinpoint an intermittent or complex problem, we’ll explain the process and keep you informed every step of the way.
Yes. We diagnose a wide range of automotive electrical issues, including battery drain, charging system problems, faulty wiring, alternator and starter issues, blown fuses, malfunctioning sensors, and other electrical faults affecting your vehicle’s performance.
If the check engine light is steady, your vehicle may still be safe to drive for a short time, but it should be diagnosed as soon as possible to prevent further damage. If the light is flashing, it usually indicates a more serious problem that could damage your engine. In that case, it’s best to stop driving and have your vehicle inspected immediately.
Charge is 40$ plus tax. This is for the scan only and does not include additional parts or labor.
